- 5% Lidocaine Numbing Cream, Fast-Acting Maximum Strength Topical Anesthetic Pain Relief Burn Itch Numb Cream with Vitamin E for Hemorrhoid Treatment, Local and Anorectal Uses - 30g 2 Pack

Used it on my most recent tattoo and it worked great! I spread it on thick and covered my arm in cling wrap for an hour before my appointment. It didn't numb me completely, but it took away at least 70% of the pain, and it seemed to last for about 3 hours. Definitely worth it for a 4 hour tattoo!

Im covered head to toe literally, and am in the process of blacking out both arms, up my shoulders and back of my neck/head. This stuff is amazing. Doesn’t cause swelling or skin discoloration, and artists Ive worked with in shops for 7 years say this brand is the only Numbing they’ll allow because of that.

Works great for tattoos

The cream worked well at first — I followed the instructions exactly and it definitely numbed the area effectively. However, the effect only lasted about an hour, which wasn’t quite long enough for my session. It’s great for shorter tattoos or touch-ups, but for longer work, you might need to reapply or find something longer lasting. Still, solid product for what it is. I'll use again.

This stuff works great if you are getting a tattoo! I have bought this twice and it’s worked every time I have applied it. It really takes the edge off for the first hour or two. It got really expensive so I tried another lidocaine brand that had a lot of reviews and was cheaper, big mistake! The stuff didn’t work AT ALL i felt everything. I’m sticking with Dr Numb because it actually works!

So I purchased this product because of the large amount of reviews that gave it 5 stars. I am perplexed as to how this product was rated more than 1 star by anyone. It DOES NOT WORK WELL. I purchased the product to assist in making getting my first tattoo close to pain free. For my first tat, it’s a large one. Despite putting the product on and using the saran wrap and waiting 50 minutes, then also reapplying it a second time for 40 minutes to ensure that it would take. When the artist began the tattoo, I felt the pressure of the needle and the vibrations but not much pain. But I thought that must be normal so I didn’t think anything of it. However, after about 20 minutes, the product wore off and I began to feel the needle and the puncturing of my skin. The pain level was about a 6 out of 10 for most of the tattoo. It was about 7 for the part of the tattoo that extends to the middle of my back. So, the pain was mostly moderate. However, this product is supposed to numb you for 4 hours according to the box. Complete lie. It somewhat numbs (not fully) you for about 20-25 minutes and then you are going to feel the needle. Overall, the product’s performance was substandard. A better numbing cream is tattoo Numbing cream co and it’s cheaper in price. Dr. Numb failed to provide the protection against pain that it was supposed to.

I think I put it on too late but once my tattoo was over, it numbed the after pain but I don’t think I’d purchase again. I put it on maybe 30 minutes before getting tatted.

Works great! I was a little worried from mixed reviews but after reading them all, I followed the recommendation of applying a thick layer 2 hours prior to tattoo appointment and wrapping in plastic wrap. I did it again 30 minutes before (an hour and a half after first application) and rewrapped it. Didn't feel much of a difference or numbness after the second application. Unwrapped it at appointment time, and felt a little numb. The artist got started late (about 30 mins, so 2.5 hours after original application and 1 hour after reapplication) and by the time needle hit skin I couldn't feel a thing. It was PHENOMENAL. It did wear off after about an hour to an hour and a half, but this was because of the late start. I took a break and reapplied. While it didn't numb it completely it wasn't unbearable. I drove about an hour home after and didn't feel a thing though and it's on the back of my thigh. I'd heard some artists don't like to use it because they're worried it affects the ink or application. Pictured above are initial stencil (after 2 applications), outline and a smidge of color (mid tattoo after 3rd application), and finished product. You can tell it doesn't negatively affect anything. Worth every penny, but timing is key. I will be buying this for all tattoos moving forward.

I used this because I almost fainted from the pain caused by microneedling. Yes I'm very sensitive to physical pain. I used this as a thick layer on the face and neck. Left it on for 50mins and did an amazing job. Will buy again.

Although on the expensive side it works better than other brands I’ve tried. I’d rather pay more than feel pain tbh😂

I wouldn’t recommend Recommend this product at all. It barely works. It’s not useful at all Doctor num more like Doctor nothing
